A new chapter begins - All registered at University

Are you off to University in the next couple of weeks?

How do you feel?

Are you a 1st year fresher?

Where are you off to?

Yesterday saw the beginning of a new chapter for me too.  I completed my registration to my new university.  In case you didn't see my story so far:
Last year I was in London for my first year at uni.  I loved this place.  Didn't mind the travel either.  Although it played it's part with taking a bit of my health.  Being a "Spoonie" with Crohns, I need to give that lots of respect.... So I have now transferred to a lovely university close to home!

Open day after open day, I have gone along to do my research.  Reaching a place where research was all done,  there was still something I was unsure about. Knowing I would be missing my friends from London,   the comfort of knowing where the rooms were,  how the hygiene worked in the super lab,  enjoying my time on the train... I needed to feel 100% about making the move.

Little by little,  the universe (not university, the universe) has showed me nuggets of painful twinges here and there and so many reasons to make the switch.  Plus,  at my new local uni they are so super friendly and sweet.  They have already told me they would like to get me onboard with mentoring and training the others which is what I adore doing.  Feeling 'looked after' there is just priceless.

So,  look out Science and biochemistry,  I'm coming for you.



Nutrition at its best,  I am excited to extend my knowledge through evidence based science and research and share with you my findings online here.  I have a dream to help as many people as possible to get well through changing diet and lifestyle.  This has been a huge learning curve for me as I have learned to live with my diagnosis. 

I would love you to head over to my nutrition blog and follow me there as I share this specific information.  You owe it to your body (ohh; cheesy!)
Plus I will be sharing more and more health and cooking stuff on my Youtube channel too! 

In the next couple of weeks I am considering sharing with you my vulnerable reasons for doing what I'm doing and my dreams for the future and where I would like to be.  What do you think?  Would you like to see this?  Are you still reading this far in - as I would love you to leave me a comment.  This blog gets hundreds of views per day (which is mind blowing) yet I often don't know what you are all thinking.  This is my invitation to you for you to let me know.  Get in touch,  leave a comment or tweet me.  I would love your support with my journey. 

A new chapter begins.

Much love


Louise xoxo

#BattenVEDA - the playlist so far

Hey everyone!

As my last Blog post mentioned,  I am taking part in #BattenVEDA.  This means I blog every day in August.  There is a subject you can chose to follow if you like!

So far I have,  although it's just slightly crazy!  For instance,  todays VLOG has me telling you who is my favourite Alice in Wonderland character and why!

From the middle of a field on the Kent/Sussex borders I have found a little corner with some WI-Fi, just enough to pop a quick blog post up for you!

I have filmed and uploaded 5 videos so far and I'll share the playlist here for you to have a look and a giggle at.  We are having fun camping and you can see all the action on the videos.  We visited this same place last year and you can see this blog post here.


Rest assured I will be adding lots of photography for you to see really soon,  meanwhile, here is the latest Vlog for you to enjoy!

Much love

Louise xoxo

Autoimmune diet and me - my podcast!

Hey everyone!!!

I'm thrilled to bits to announce my new news!

iTunes have accepted my podcast request and you can now subscribe to my podcast over there! I'm chuffed to say the least.  I was thinking it would be so so complicated and as you know by now, I've lots of fingers in many pies already!

Life is busy already.

Although you will come to learn over the next few weeks on the podcast, that life has *got* to change for me.  It's a must!

So what is my podcast all about?



I have opted to not just chit chat (although there will be plenty of that in the beginning of the podcasts!) but the second part of the podcasts I'm going to niche right down to talk about making health better through using the right nutrition.
For myself,  you might well know by now that I have Crohns disease (among other things!) and this is one of many autoimmune diseases.

Just recently, I had a turning point, an AHA moment, if you will, and this has lead me to this place.

You may know I'm currently taking a degree in Human Nutrition and I love all things like that.  Perhaps I can help someone you know too.  So I will be starting to chat about this a little over on my Youtube channel too as well as all the usual Vlogs.  

This coming week, I will be putting up another show where you can see me opening up and speaking honestly about what made me decide to get back to the special autoimmune diet.  Also how I'm feeling now.

You will make my day if you come over for a listen and perhaps share. The great thing about podcasts is you can download them to listen offline,  just the same way as you would the latest album release (although the podcast is FREE).  You can listen in the car, in the gym etc so head over to the link below and find me on iTunes.  Let me know you've subscribed too.  I'd love to hear from you if you are a listener but definitely if you are also an autoimmune illness sufferer.

Meanwhile, wishing you much love

Louise xoxo

Negatives=positives

Ok, ok. So I'm a law of attraction expert. 
However, I'm a human being. 

Doing a science degree where facts are needed to make the world go round is giving me an issue. 2+2=4. 
If you believe it does! 

I do believe in science. I also believe in magic. Magic often can't be explained.  

Just like love. 

That's a mystery too. 

I miss my morning walks with Harley. 

I miss driving my children to school. 

I miss lazy mornings sipping mint tea and electronically flipping through my laptop. 

I miss blogging. 

I miss making as many YouTube videos. 

I definitely miss writing my next book. So many have messaged me wanting another book out soon!

Well, I do have a little news actually.  This summer will see a new book from me.  There will be 2 ways of getting your hands on it.  You can sign up to my email list on the right hand side (and get it for free)  or you can buy it from amazon. I'll let you know when this is all going to happen. 

However, I digress,  back to 'missing my life'.

So yes, there have been many changes over this past few months and can you believe that I'm almost at the end of this University year.  Life has been crazy.
Speaking to so many clients online, offline, any line and keeping everyone happy.
Attempting (failing) to keep home looking like something from a magazine.
Supporting the twins and they begin their GSCE journey.  All while studying myself.

Life often gets a little tough.

What I love about it is this.  I am thankful every day for dragging my tired eyes out of bed.  I challenge myself to learn and grow.  I do learn and grow.  I learn more and more about the human body, its needs and wants.  I help others with my new knowledge.

I pass exams!!!

The final results aren't in yet but bear with me as I get through these last few weeks.  I have a super super treat in store for you with the new book, blogs saved as draughts and videos uploaded to Youtube on private. 

Don't worry, I will reveal all to you soon as I can! Not long now until the end of term and I can take a deep breath and jump into deep water and see what happens next.

Oh life is an adventure.  

So what have you been up to?  Have you found things tough?  How have you turned it around to feel positively about things?

Let me know.  Keep in touch

much love as always

Louise xoxo

Blog teaser - what is coming up?

Blog Teaser


So, you might know, I am off on my holidays super soon.

I’m more than excited as you can imagine.  The palm trees, cocktails, fresh fruit, swimming, white sand and bluest of blue sea……….sigh……it’s been a long time coming.  This holiday is a total luxury and I feel so blessed to be living the life of my dreams.  



More and more, things are coming into fruition for me and I am so excited to share with you how I have done it.  I have been keeping a secret from you! Bursting to share with you!

I need to focus on one more bit of work and then I can release this to you.  Don’t try and guess as you won’t,  you can’t.  It’s impossible.  Suffice to say, I have been keeping written blog posts in the ‘drafts’ file for ages.  Then my Youtube channel has quite a few uploaded videos which are still marked as private.  Working hard, I hope to be able to release these to you not long after  I return from holiday.  I know this seems very cloak and dagger but it’s all good!

Just promise me you will click to follow this blog on bloglovin’ and my Youtube channel too so you keep up to date for when I release my new news.  It’s super exciting.

Meanwhile, watch this space for holiday news too! I cannot wait to show you my photos and videos.  I’m currently manifesting an amazing room and wonderful food, drinks, fun and laughter!

How are things with you?  Tell me all of your news! I’m excited to know how the Law of Attraction lifestyle is going for you?  Did you download any of the books or DVD’s from the right hand side of my website? I know they will have helped massively.  Game changers!

Wishing you much love


Louise xoxo

Professional Beauty, London - Wow! Wow! Wow!

Honestly, totally, the best Pro beauty I have ever seen! 

What was different?  I'm really not sure but there was a feeling, a buzz, an excitement!

Aside from the glamour, the gorgeous people, the amazing sets created by big names in the industry, there seemed to be some magic in the atmosphere.





Greeted by the press department, we were welcomed with champagne and chatted to some amazing strangers who were soon to become friends.  Also there to soak up the brands!





Jasmine and I quickly headed through the already-bustling walkways onto Art Pro Nail who we had previously corresponded with.  Meeting the team with beaming smiles (and looking like a coffee wouldn't go amiss already) they were crazy busy.  I can see why.  A wonderful product within the stand.  Worthy of an entire blog post all to itself and indeed a definite Youtube video!  You don't want to miss it so go ahead and subscribe to the channel and you will be able to see when the video demo goes up.  


Taking nails to a whole new level; art pro nail have an amazing piece of affordable kit where you can offer a service that screams 'bespoke' at its best! 

Tanning,  nails,  eyebrows and lashes,  skincare (always overflowing queues) and my lovely friend Sally on the Lipo Angel stand (too busy to interrupt to say hello!)

Live Q and A

Hey there

How's the world in your Lusher Life?

Things here have been crazy and fun all at the same time.  Yesterday after many requests I made a live Q and A on google hangouts and youtube! IT was awesome.  Raw.  You get to see the real me.  I even almost cried tears of JOY.

Missed it?  Never mind, watch it here!  If you don't have an hour to watch, scroll to the 40th minute onwards where I speak about writing as a passion and my moment of realisation.


Much love

Louise xoxo

Crazy Social media frenzy!

What in the world is going on?

More manifestations - well, I did ask for it!
As you know, as I have told you so many times, you get what you think about.  I have spent the past couple of years building my business online and I love it!

How do you know you are doing the right job?  Well, coaches often say if you are feeling like you just want to get up and keep doing what you are doing over and over again then you are in the right job.  So here I am, on my day off, writing, editing and more writing.  I love it.

Is that how you feel about your own life?  If not, you are able to make changes.  Let me tell you, this visualisation stuff really works.
For me, I have manifested so many results recently and have a very clear understanding of where I am going forwards.  Such a lovely feeling.  Here's where you come in.  Not only can you help me, but you can be a little nosey in the process! We all love to peek into each others lives.  Recently I have been sharing more and more on Youtube - insights into my day.  People seem to love this stuff.  That, coupled with my blog....

I am up for an award!!!!!



I'm thrilled to see this and I would really love it if you can come on over and vote for me! Twitter will let me know if you do and I can then send a retweet out to all my followers for a little more press for you too!  A favour for a Favour!

Vote here:  http://shortyawards.com/LouiseUsher
I will be so thrilled to see a finals place for my blog.  If you are someone who blogs, you will know these things take lots of dedication.  I love my blog! To get that prestigious recognition would be fantastic!  The finals are in New York.  It's been a dream to go there!

So what else has been happening?  You can follow all my news in the links above.  However, the low down,  Jasmine and I went to meet with Zoella recently and now we went to meet Tanya Burr.  If you aren't sure who these ladies are, they are massive in the world of Youtube.  Such an inspiration.  They had a dream to build a business online and made them happen.  Great head for business too! See the video blog I made here.  The internet world is going crazy for this video!

Valentines Day is fast approaching!

Happy valentines to you!

So what do you wish for this year on Valentines?  I've made a couple of videos for you to see.  This way if you are
single,
searching or
settled you can find something for all of you in there!

Updates galore this week! I am off to Pro-beauty soon (big shout out to Art Pronail UK who have some lovely gooddies for us and will be featuring on my Vlog of the day!) and will be taking Jasmine along with me as she is almost more of a make up expert than me these days!
Following that, It's off to London Fashion week with the Global Stars girls and just before all of this I will be live streaming on Youtube.  I've been inundated with questions and thought it would be easier to do a live stream on Youtube to get all the questions answered!
Let me know if you have a question you would like answered.

You will see my blog link ups on the lovely website of Sprinkle of Glitter! Exciting times.

I'm adding on some of my posts and videos here that you will find have been featuring this past 2 weeks on the internet! Hope you enjoy them!

Have a wonderful Valentines.

Much love

It's beginning to look a lot like #vlogmas

Can you believe how close we now are to Christmas?  Tomorrow is Christmas eve and then it all begins.  

The excitement.

The opening of the last advent calendar. 

The chaos! Remember to watch the overwhelm.  It's your job to also make sure that YOU have a good time too!  That's what it's all about!
If you missed my post on 3 top tips to avoid overwhelm then click here

December 2014 has been amazing for me! Clarity and direction coming at me from all over.  I've had a brilliant time at University, despite there being lots of exams.  Actually, likely because there are lots of exams.  I do love a challenge.  Although it's been uber busy in the working world too.  With clients needing beautifying as well as many coaching clients needing help with their own direction.

Plus,  it's VLOGMAS!

If you aren't too sure what Vlogmas is, I'll give you a quick explanation.  On Youtube (you've heard of that I know) there are guys and girls who upload a video a day through December.  All things Christmassey.  Even just a quick post looking worn out from bed saying "I've been working so many hours" as some of my Youtube family have been doing. It's tricky to juggle and lots of hard work goes into making these videos.  If you are a little bit nosey and like to see whats going on in people's lives in the build up to Christmas then go search vlogmas and you will find loads of videos.

I'd love you to go have a look at mine and tell me what you think.  Below my videos are links to other Youtubers who I have found to be totally awesome folks.  All are growing channels so go give them a watch and a subscribe.

I must mention the Daddy-o of the group, Stephen.  It's his Youtube anniversary today.  He has been going for 2 years.  I find him fascinating!!! And funny.  He has grown his channel significantly in that time and once again, lots of hard work has gone into creating this channel.  Head on over there (tell him I sent you) and leave him a happy anniversary comment! Find Stephen here.


This blog is just full of information today!

At the bottom of this post you will see a link to my Vlogmas videos.  Go and see my life, how crazy it's been and all. Plus, if you subscribe you will find I have some exciting news to share in the new year (fingers crossed).

Right so back to business.  What does 2014 look like in the Lusher Life camp.
I'm launching a more affordable way for you to get my help in the coaching, weight loss and nutrition departments.  Now, I know what it's like to struggle and if you remember I am highly trained by one of the big boys who I no longer work for.  My degree in Nutrition is going fantastically and I'm so glad to be doing this.
Online, you can get the support from me that you need.  This is a one to one personal email of encouragement to you weekly.  You will weigh in at home and report in to me!

At the start, I will set you goals and let you know what your healthy weight should be (the most frequent question for clients).  Then I will show you the tools you can use (which are free) to keep a track of how to actually make sure you eat for weight loss.  Should you require more coaching from me you can purchase this of course.  However, for a 12 week course starting the first week of January, you pay less than £3.99 a week.  Yup, for the entire 12 weeks it's just £40. You can book tickets for this in the link above on the right hand side where it says "Eventbrite' or you can click here. 
Book tickets for online support

As it's going to be solely me who will be providing the support, places are limited.  Obviously once January the 1st comes, they are likely to sell fast so I urge you to get cracking and sort it today rather than miss out.  

I'm likely to do another at the end of this 12 weeks but if you want to be onboard for January then do it! You know you can do it.  It's in you.  You just need support, accountability and motivation.  That's where I come in.  Email me with any questions you have before booking! 

Meanwhile, here are those videos for you to see.  I will be posting more all over Christmas. Including what we got for Christmas (and unwrapping!), unboxing of a muscle food order, cooking tips, general chit chat and of course, my upcoming birthday!

Sending much love

Christmas Primark Haul

Hey there

So how are you Christmas plans shaping up?

I've been super crazy busy here and I would love to share all my news with you.  

As it's that time of year for Christmas parties and looking glamourous, I am overwhelmingly busy with doing peoples hair, beauty, nails and make up!  I love it! If only I took more photos.  

Yesterday (this was amazing) I was leaving London and having a wander to get my train when I was approached by a lovely lady who was looking for models to join them in a campaign for advertising St Pancras Station.  Wow.  She said I was looking lovely.  That was very flattering.  However, due to work commitments and hearing problems, I did decline just now.  Still lovely though!
At the time, I had actually been making some more video footage for my Vlogmas.  I'll pop a link below to mine but please please subscribe to my channel as I'm keen to grow it and also you can keep up with all the videos there too!

Recently, life has been manic and I would love to give more time to making the Youtube videos.  I totally love them.  It's a wonderful thing to do in my spare time.  If you make videos and would like me to share your channel I'm doing a shout out session and links below my video too so get in touch!

Other news:  I'm nervous to share this news as it's a double edged sword.  Me and my Uni friends are studying so hard on our Science and nutrition degree.  Hoping to go onto the BSc in Dietetics next year.  There was a gruelling process to go through to get onto the degree as (I'm not kidding) places are VERY limited as they are funded by the NHS just like student Drs and nurses.  
The whole process has been draining and exciting at the same time.  Well yesterday we found out the news we had been waiting for.  My lovely friend "A" (not got her permission yet to use her name) text me and told me to check my emails.  Both she and I had been successful in our application which was, of course wonderful news.  Although we need to pass all 4 modules with Distinction to comply! Plus a few other criteria.  Yet we were squealing with delight that finally it looked like our dreams were coming true.

I've wanted to be a dietitian for many years now, since I was at school!

Then came the sad news, many of our other friends had not been successful.  This is so sad.  Everyone has such great qualities and I love them all.  How we will deal with this on Monday goodness knows.  It will be hard.  Doubtless, being the amazing women they are they will wish us congratulations.  Yet I know they will have heavy hearts that means they may have to give up or re-apply next year.  So sad.  

Right, back to the Christmas stuff! How's your shopping and wrapping going?

See my videos here:  Don't forget to subscribe and let me have your links for shout outs!
